It takes 8 weeks for ss from sa and don't forget about the christmas shut down. What date did you apply?

Any idea what the timescale to get ss from WA is Kev? Thanks.

My agent said around 4 at the moment,i'm just taking his word for it, as hes doing this all the time,he said they have SA ss over 8 weeks and waiting.I asked if I could apply for both as a back up ,but he thought it was a bad idea as your supposed to be making a commitment to your state sponser and applying for 2 dosn't really do that:biglaugh:
